Resources

The Early Childhood Collaborative of Southington has provided lists of local, state and national early childhood resources for the benefit of the greater Southington community.

Click here for Town Resources – preschools* and child care options*, summer camp programs*, activities and programs for young children, health care providers, places to play outside and more in Southington, Plantsville, Marion, Milldale and nearby. The ECCS also maintains a list of preschool options, including enrollment details and current openings.

*Note that licenses are required for preschools, family and center child care providers. Licenses are also required for day and overnight vacation or summer programs that meet at least 3 days a week over a meal period. The current status, including inspections and investigations, can be checked on the State of CT License Lookup site. Be sure to pick the correct category (“child day care – centers and group homes,” “child day care – family homes” or “youth camp”) and town (Southington, Plantsville, Marion and Milldale are listed separately).

Connecticut 2-1-1 Childcare provides information and resources about how to select the best care for your child and details about offering childcare in your home or as a nanny.

The fine print: Inclusion of any providers on these lists does not imply endorsement by the ECCS, its director or leadership team or by the Community Foundation for Greater New Britain or our other funders.
